Mandurah Mustangs Football and Netball Club is Mandurah's longest standing club in the PFNL.​ In 1927 the local fisherman of Mandurah and other young men of the community formed a footy team. Their first ground was where the Mandurah Primary School is today, on Hackett Street. With the help from others in the community they cleared the bushland and built their first football field.

 

In the years following, a new football field was needed. The Eacotts offered their property on Park Road. This land when needed for development of John Tonkin College, so, a 3rd oval was developed thanks to Hobart Tuckey on Fremantle Road. 
 

And, because the 3rd isn't a charm, the Sutton brothers, from a well known family of the Peel Region, made their property in Halls Head available to create another oval. The following article was written in the Country News Section on the 5th of June 1931; 'The newly formed Mandurah Football members held a dance recently to raise funds for material. At a meeting the following officers were elected. Sir Ross McLarty MLA; Patron, Mr Hobart Tuckey JP; President, Mr W G Thomas; Secretary, Mr Don Powell; Captain. Practices have started in Mr Tuckey's paddock in Fremantle.'

​

In the late 40s, the club was made to find another ground. Mr Cyril Rushton, the head of Mandurah Road Board, found an acreage now known as Rushton Park in the early 50s. Mr Jack Scott cleared the land with the help of Bill Hough and the rest of the wider community. 

 

1949 was the year that the club won their first premership playing in the Murray District Football Organisation. In 1959 Pinjarra and Mandurah joined the South Suburban Murray Football League, in their first year of joining, Pinjarra took the flag and the following year, Mandurah won their second premiership under coach T Archibald. In 1972 they were successful again coached under John Garnuat. 

 

The club is now playing under the Peel Football and Netball League. Since joining the PFNL, we have had many successes. In 1993 we took home the Colts, Reserves and League grandfinals. League won the flag again in 1995 and in 2003, we had another trifecta where Colts, Reserves and League took home the flag. 
 

The club has recently celebrated their 90th anniversary aswell as their 20th and 30th year anniversary's of 3 premiership wins. 

 

The following is quoted from Sandra Muir (Tuckey) family, member of Hobart and Dudley Tuckey, "It is noticable that clearing and building 5 football ovals and club houses in Mandurah, and all without any financial assistance from the Mandurah or Murray Road Boards, we feel that we have earned our home in this community here at Rushton Park.
